Imagine you are a 1940's news reporter and you have the opportunity to interview one of the defendants in the Nuremberg Trials for your newspaper, TV station or radio channel. While multiple students may have been assigned the same criminal, this project is NOT a group project. For the individual you have been assigned you need to:
Write an 8-10 sentence biography (in paragraph form) of the individual you have been assigned.
Write a 2-page interview you would conduct with that person. You interview must be written as a dialogue between the subject and you. Make sure you make it clear to the reader what your person was accused of, what the verdict was, why the court ruled that way, and how your individual feels about their actions. Note: This is to be a work of fiction. Read what your criminal has said in the past and create this FICTIONAL dialogue between you and him.
Upload your interview to the page created for you. (A-2 and A-4, you will do this on Friday. Write this assignment by hand on Wed.)
Indicate which of the above resources you used for this project.
